Default aggressive front end

Is the front end on the 2010 a little too aggressive? Let me know your thoughts.

I love the front end. I like how the air intakes wrap around the forks. I like how the angles are sharp, but flow really well together. The color scheme in the front looks great as well. I might have changed up the windshield a little bit.

Is there such thing as "too aggressive"?

I dont think it is too aggressive at all - in fact, thats what made me fall in love with the thing - just how aggressive it looks, even sitting at a standstill!

I do like the looks of it, but still prefer my 2nd cause well, it's mine and I can't afford a 3rd gen right now . First 4 things I would change on a 3rd gen however are: mirrors to barends, silencers, undertail and the weird covers on the forks.

BigSexy, I agree on most of your posts, fork protectors, mirrors, bar ends can go, the pipes and tail (after undertail) I like, the front I would like to swap with an 84 Ninja 900 (even though it's close).

The aggressive look fits the image of the bike. I love it.

had a guy on a 750 nighthawk compliment me yesterday. he said" good lookin bike looks fast" i said" not real fast but real quick, it'll only do 150." he said" that's fast enough." i said" not really." my question is how fast is fast enough? ( may be rhetorical.)

Like you said, Rick, "quick" and "fast" are very different things. I'm more interested in getting up to speed than I am with top speed. So, 150 is more than fine, especially when it's tough enough holding on after 120!
